In this knowledge base article we'll go over how to embed a MyOrderDesk website into a Wordpress website (or any other website).

What does it mean to "embed a MyOrderDesk website"?

Below you'll see several images of a website. The area inside the green square is a MyOrderDesk website that has been customized and simplified to make it look as if it belongs to the Printvia Wordpress website. To the untrained eye it's virtually impossible to tell that the MyOrderDesk website is embedded.

How to Embed

Many different pages can be embedded, but we'll start with something simple like the My Account page.

1. Create a new page on your Wordpress website and assign it a name such as: My Account

2. Copy and paste the code below into that the "Text" tab of the Wordpress editor (see image below). NOTE: Be sure to replace the ##### in the code with your MyOrderDesk account number which can be found in the upper right hand corner of your MyOrderDesk website after signing in. This will be common for all code pieces and you must be sure to replace the pound symbols.

3. You are now ready to save the changes and view the page. If everything was done correctly above, then you should see your MyOrderDesk sign in page. IMAGE 1 at the top of this article is an example of the Sign in page. After signing in, your profile will be displayed.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Email Notifications

You must setup a page on your Wordpress site that can be used when you or your users click on email links.

In your Wordpress website, create a new page and name it: w2p

Paste the code below onto that page and save the page. When the MyOrderDesk techs take your site live they will setup the configuration within your MyOrderDesk website.

Additional Steps when embedding:

2. Turn off your MyOrderDesk navigation, as you will be using your Wordpress navigation to get to different pages. (Admin Menu > Site Settings > Elements > set menu to "Classic Tab Menu" > uncheck boxes: See image below)
